Status: end of career

Markus Weinzierl (born December 28, 1974 in Straubing ) is a former German soccer player and current coach .

During his active career, he played 44 games in the 2nd Bundesliga for the Stuttgarter Kickers and for SpVgg Unterhaching , before he had to end his career as a player in 2005 as a player for SSV Jahn Regensburg due to injury. He then started a career as a coach and rose to the 2nd Bundesliga in 2012 with the first team of SSV Jahn Regensburg before moving to the Bundesliga , where he initially coached FC Augsburg and FC Schalke 04 . Until April 20, 2019, he was the head coach of VfB Stuttgart .

Player career

Via the youth clubs TSV Straubing (until 1989) and 1. FC Passau (until 1994) as well as SV Lohhof (1994/95 season) Weinzierl came to Bayern Munich , for whose amateurs he played until 1999. He was part of the first team's squad in the 1998/99 season , but did not play a competitive game.

In 1999 he moved to the Stuttgarter Kickers , for which he completed 40 second division games by 2001 . He made his debut in paid football on August 15, 1999 (1st matchday) in the 1: 4 defeat in the away game against Alemannia Aachen ; his only goal came in the following season, on December 16, 2000 (18th matchday), when he scored the opening goal for 1-0 from a penalty kick in the 3-1 away win at Rot-Weiß Oberhausen .

With the descent of the Stuttgarter Kickers Weinzierl moved to the second division side SpVgg Unterhaching , for which he only played four months, however, before joining the regional division SSV Jahn Regensburg in January 2002 . An injury forced him to end his playing career in 2005.

Weinzierl played a total of seven games in the DFB-Pokal competition: three for the Stuttgarter Kickers and two each for SpVgg Unterhaching and SSV Jahn Regensburg.

Coaching career

In April 2006 Weinzierl returned as assistant coach from Günter Güttler to the later fourth division club SSV Jahn Regensburg and was head coach there from November 2008 - after Thomas Kristl's dismissal . He led the Upper Palatinate in the 2011/12 season via relegation to the 2nd Bundesliga. Weinzierl said about his early days as head coach that he jumped into the deep end, swam and never went under.

On May 17, 2012 - a few days after the promotion with Jahn Regensburg - FC Augsburg announced that Weinzierl would be the new head coach for the 2012/13 season . He took over the team from Jos Luhukay , who had resigned after the last matchday of the preseason, and managed to stay in the league after only nine points won from the first half of the season. The playful development continued in the following season; Weinzierl was never in danger of relegation with his team, which had only issued relegation as a goal. Instead, he reached eighth place with the FCA, which meant the Augsburg team's most successful season to date, and had the chance of a place in the European Cup on the last day of the match. Then he was voted the best coach of the 2013/14 season by the Association of Contract Soccer Players with 30.7%, ahead of master coach Pep Guardiola (25.6%) and runner-up Jürgen Klopp (18.6%). In the 2014/15 season, Augsburg, again focused only on preventing relegation, increased again, were temporarily third in the table and finally set a new record with fifth place after the previous season. At the same time, with the sure Europa League qualification , this meant the first European Cup participation and thus the greatest success of the club up to that point. In the 2015/16 season, Weinzierl was the longest-serving coach in the Bundesliga after the resignation of Lucien Favre . After the end of the 2015/16 season, Weinzierl and FC Augsburg parted ways.

Weinzierl took over from season 2016/17 to FC Schalke 04 . After he had reached 10th place in the league, he was on leave and replaced by Domenico Tedesco for the new season .

On October 10, 2018, Weinzierl took over the Bundesliga team of VfB Stuttgart, which was in last place in the table with five points after seven match days, as the successor to Tayfun Korkut, who was on leave . On April 20, 2019, Weinzierl was on leave after a 6-0 defeat at FC Augsburg .
